Scripture Reference Lookup
Type a Bible reference and read the passage in the World English Bible.
Passage
Turn on JavaScript to use this calculator. The formula is explained below so you can work it out by hand.
How this calculator works
Type a book, chapter, and verse. The lookup understands full names and common short forms (Gen, Ps, 1 Cor, Phil), whole chapters (Psalm 23), verse ranges (Romans 8:28-39), and ranges that cross chapters (Genesis 1:1-2:3). Separate up to 10 references with semicolons.
The text is the World English Bible (WEB), a modern English translation in the public domain. In the Old Testament, the WEB writes God's name as “Yahweh” where many translations use “the LORD.”
Example
Enter Philippians 4:6-7 to read two verses, Psalm 23 for the whole psalm, or Matthew 5:3-12; Luke 6:20-23 to compare two passages.
